I got it quick. Lol That's a good one. Lol

So, just a pet then. Guess we'll stick with Blue Boy for show then. Thanks appreciate it. So figured his tail would be considered split as well, yes? I am going to learn these things, but its nice to have opinions especially from those more knowledgeable.

LOL, the bird silly! Obviously the one is a pullet, and she is standing in that pic. I was trying to get a nice one of her and her sibling, but they are such demons to get pics of. Never stop moving!

love the last one!

There is a guy here who has dutchies that color.

He's living with a few phoenix right now, so they pick on him a bit. He's getting moved closer to winter when I put the phoenix and yoko in isolation for the winter.

Ok. I got some updated pics of my Jap cockerel. I am still needing a name for him at this point, but I want some opinions.

It honestly looks like a scab to me. Chickens have tiffs, she may have gotten nipped by another...

Not unless you are in deep winter...

I would think serema over jap. He's got nice stance too.

For poops and giggles, has any one crossed a jap with a serema? I ask because a serema hen lives with the jap hens, and my serema roo is too stuck up and prefers big booty fluff butts... The BIG GIRLS, and disdains having anything to do with the serema hen. WHO is an excellent broody btw.

H NO, I would rather breed to standard, like I said, I will have to harden myself to the in egg losses. Just curious you know... ANYWAY, I am going to get my boy off the roost tonight and try and get a pic of his tail flaired. He is only going on 5 months old, but his legs look to be right when...

Gotcha. This I can understand. Just have to harden up to the 50% possible hatch rates. What I don't understand is why its desireable (sp?) to breed for a trait that kills 25-50% of off-spring?

Ok... So feathers on one side, foot on the other. Now, when isthe bird considered full grown to measure that. I think my 2 girls legs are much shorter than that... Also, I picked up my white boy and looked at him from the rear with his tail flaired... What exactly makes it split tail? Should...

See, that was quite polite. Now, I am thinking my cockerel is considered long legged? The girls would be short legged. Should I have him cover them then? I am trying to understand the fatal genes in that legged dept. Would there be a better chance of hatch, higher than the expected 50% by...

I think now that I have actually gone back a few pages and read, I am trying to decide if participation in this thread is a good idea. If I am to be told my birds have DQ traits, I'd much rather be told politely, not with a sarcastic comment. Something more along the lines of, "if you are...

He has so much personality!

My boy is a month older than my girls. They are 5 and 4. I have 2 girls, legs are so short, they look like they are all body with feet. Super sweet littlethings. The cockerel lives with my phoenix for the moment...
